Changes

[[File:Friend Fleet Button Grey.png|right]]The '''Friend Fleet''' system is a system mechanic which has been left in KanColle as a greyed out placeholder in the menu section since it's launch in April 23rd, 2013. This mechanic was intended to engage players to use others players fleets, but due to the popularity boom of KanColle, this mechanic would be postponed for a very long time and would remain inactive.

[[File:Friend Fleet Button Grey.png|right]]The '''Friend Fleet''' system is a new game mechanic, expected to be introduced to the game after [[Phase 2]] is rolled out.

It wasn't until the Fall of 2017 during the [[KanColle Naval Review]] when during the show they would make a big announcement that the long awaited "Friend Fleet" System would finally be making it's long awaited entrance upon entering [[Phase 2]] of KanColle which is scheduled being work during the '''Spring 2018 Mini Event''' and take up until the '''Summer of 2018''' before the migration is complete (give or take possible delays)

While the option has been present in the main menu since the game launched on April 23rd, 2013, no further details about it were released until the Fall 2017 [[KanColle Naval Review]]. During the Naval Review event, it was announced that the Friend Fleet system would be fully implemented once [[Phase 2]] of KanColle was rolled out in 2018. It has since been announced that [[Phase 2]] will be implemented via a three-step process, during the period between the 2018 Spring mini-event and the 2018 Summer event (plus possible delays).

As of current, the Friend Fleet system has been introduced in the game in a early test model during the [[Winter 2018 Event]] in the form of an '''NPC Friend Fleet'''. Tanaka revealed through the April Issue of Comptiq that the current version was made for testing and the final version will be completed by the time [[Phase 2]] begins.

As of early 2018, the Friend Fleet system has been temporarily implemented once in-game for testing purposes, in the form of '''NPC Friend Fleets''' during the [[Winter 2018 Event]]. Tanaka revealed through the [[Kensuke Tanaka Interview: Comptiq Magazine April 2018|April 2018 Issue of Comptiq]] that this version of the mechanic was created for testing purposes, and that the final version will be fully implemented by the time [[Phase 2]] begins.
